Managing Person Groups Rather than Persons
To facilitate person management, instead of managing persons individually, you can manage them by person group.
Example: the group of auditors.
Configuration does not take place at the person level but at the group level.
Persons belonging to a group:
• depend on the same environment.
• share the same connection characteristics defined by the profile of the group and its assignment.
see Profile Description.• connect to the application with their login.
• share the assignments defined for the group.
• share the characteristics defined for the group (e.g.: access rights, data language).
When a person belongs to a person group, the person cumulates the profiles assigned to him/her to the profiles assigned to the person groups she/he belongs to. The person connects as a group or via his/her own profile assignments (defined on his/her person).A person can belong to one or more groups.
You can:
• connect a person to a person group, individually, directly at creation of the person.
See Creating a User.• connect multiple persons to a person group simultaneously:
